Greater Fort Lauderdale is considered Florida’s LGBTQ capital, with one of the country’s main Pride Centers, the world’s first AIDS museum, the International Gay & Lesbian Travel Association’s (IGLTA) global headquarters and the Stonewall Museum, one of the country’s few permanent spaces dedicated to exhibits related to LGBTQ heritage and culture. This tourism brings in a large amount of revenue for Greater Fort Lauderdale, with an average of $1.5 billion. With hundreds of LGBTQ-owned and operated businesses and the highest concentration of same-sex households in the country, Fort Lauderdale welcomes 1.5 million LGBTQ visitors annually. “The LGBTQ community has seen significant changes in our community and in society and this year’s theme, Glitter and Gratitude, honors those accomplishments.” “As we enter our 44th year as Florida’s first LGBTQ Pride festival, we are reminded of how far we’ve come and how much we have to be grateful for,” Pride Fort Lauderdale President Miik Martorell said. Organizers announced that Pride Fort Lauderdale 2021’s theme will be “Glitter and Gratitude.” | After a long and difficult year and with all the damage that the COVID-19 pandemic has brought to large gatherings and festivals, Fort Lauderdale has announced that it will be hosting its 2021 Pride Festival Nov.
